My new G21 M340i - went for a trip to the Arctic Circle
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com To break her in I took off to Finnish Lapland above the Arctic circle. The car got filthy right away after leaving the dealer due to the lovely weather we have here in Finland during modern day warm winters.. I did get a ceramic coating though to protect the paintwork from the absolute worst and try and making everyday cleaning as easy as possible. The car is also optioned out with the following M Performance parts: gloss black rear diffuser, rear spoiler, side sill surrounds in Frozen Black as well as the front lip. In the images without snow the car is wearing summer tires, 19" 729M HP light-alloys. While as in the images with snow I had already changed to studded winter tires, 18" with 790 M. The color is Tanzanite Blue II. Happy to share this beauty with you along with an image of the new car next to my old daily M235i xDrive Gran Coupé which I'm going to trade in this week - it already got 20k miles during the 6 months I had it for.

Beautiful touring!! So incredibly jealous of you, since we didn't get them here in the US. Great choice!

No, looks like from the post he changed them to studded 18" winters in the snow pictures.

Beautiful spec - I really wish BMW USA wouldn't have taken this one away from us. As an e91 owner, the F31 didn't really do anything for me, but this G21 sure does. It would be hard to give up this manual/RWD spec of my e91, but as a daily driver I can't think of many cars that would do the job better than the G21.

I believe someone in Europe created a F8x Wagon in San Marino Blue out of a F80 M3 and a F31 Wagon.. if they sold that in the states I would've bought one hands down.
